We evaluate the Josephson current through a quasi-1D quantum wire coupled to bulk superconductors. It is shown that the interplay of Rashba spin–orbit interaction and Zeeman splitting results in the appearence of a Josephson current even in the absence of any phase difference between the supercon...
